A London Year

A London Year is an anthology of short diary entries, one or more for each day of the year. There are more than two hundred featured writers, with a short biography for each, including Samuel Pepys, Alan Bennett and Chris Mullin.

Vividly evoking moments in the lives of Londoners over five centuries, A London Year provides snapshots of the city’s inhabitants at work, at play, in pursuit of money, sex, entertainment, pleasure and power.
